2008 S40 - Engine Starts, but nothing else does

[larrico]

I'm posting this on behalf of a friend, this is what she has told:

She hit a pothole yesterday and the car was running fine, got home turned it off and it started again, but the dashlights started to flicker and eventually went out and the engine shut-off also. She said this morning the car started, but nothing else would come on (ie radio, lights etc) and the car will not shift into drive.

Any starting to points?
